Active clinical trials for "Myalgia"

In the Emergency Department, there is no standard of care for pain medication distribution for children with an acute musculoskeletal injury when there is no fracture present. Currently, ibuprofen is a favorable choice for the treatment, but studies have shown concern for delayed healing activity associated with NSAIDs like Ibuprofen. Homeopathic Arnica Montana is a well-established complimentary medicine and may provide a good alternative for managing acute pain from musculoskeletal injuries, especially in children, given the palatability and rarity of side effects. This study aims to compare usual care vs. usual care plus Arnica 1M* (oral) or the placebo for management of pain in acute musculoskeletal extremity injuries without fracture by utilizing a double-blind clinical trial design. The primary outcome is to determine if subjects use less ibuprofen when given Arnica 1M.

A Randomized controlled trial will be conducted. Non-probability convnience sampling will be used to collect the data. Sample size of 42 subjects with age group between 18 to 40 years will be taken. Data will be collected by using tools Numeric Pain Rate Scale (NPRS) for pain, Neck Disability Index (NDI) for disability and SF-36 for Quality of life. An informed consent will be taken. A total of 20 subjects will be selected by following inclusion and exclusion criteria and will equally divided in to two groups by random number generator table. Both groups will come thrice per week for a total of 4 weeks.

The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of oral melatonin and zinc supplementation on core features in individuals with ME/CFS

Fibromyalgia is one of the most prevalent chronic widespread pain entities today. One of the most common problems in patients with fibromyalgia are alterations of the temporomandibular region, present in approximately 80% of the subjects, being, in turn, alterations of muscular origin the most common with a prevalence of 84%. One of the most promising therapeutic strategies is one that leads to self-management by the patient. The main objective of this study is to analyze the effect of a self-management program for myalgia in the temporomandibular region in subjects with fibromyalgia. For this, an experimental study of the uncontrolled Clinical Trial type will be carried out. Participants must be over 18 years of age, have a diagnosis of fibromyalgia and have myalgia or myofascial pain syndrome in the temporomandibular region. Demographic data, maximum oral opening and mandibular function, pressure pain threshold and pain level, quality of life related to oral health, kinesiophobia, anxiety and depression, sleep, patient expectations, patient satisfaction with the treatment received, patient habits, catastrophizing, knowledge about pain, central sensitization, self-efficacy, and coping with pain. An initial data collection will be carried out. The intervention will be carried out in 3 sessions in which different pain processes will be explained, mandibular mobility exercises, masticatory muscle self-massage, as well as recommendations and advice on its pathology. Data will be collected again 4 weeks after the end of the program and at months 6 and 12. The appearance of adverse effects linked to the therapeutic program is not contemplated.

This study is an 8-week single center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, flexible titration trial evaluating the efficacy of solriamfetol in the treatment of fatigue symptoms in adult patients with chronic fatigue syndrome. Subjects will be randomized to a solriamfetol group or placebo group. The investigators will utilize an intent to treat model and impute data. The overall goal of this study is to determine the efficacy and effectiveness of solriamfetol for treating chronic fatigue syndrome.

The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effect of house cricket (Acheta domesticus) supplementation for strength recovery in recreationally active males. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: whether house cricket powder could improve strength recovery and whether house cricket powder could be an alternative to commonly used protein supplement. Participants will do exercise (100 drop jumps) to induce fatigue and then they will consume either isocaloric carbohydrate, whey protein isolate or defatted house cricket powder for 4 days. Their strength will be measured every 24 hours for 4 days in order to observe the recovery. Researcher will compare house cricket powder with isocaloric carbohydrate to see if the strength recovery is faster in house cricket powder group Researcher will compare house cricket powder with whey protein isolate to see if the strength recovery is comparable.

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of photobiomodulation of the pelvic floor muscles in female Veterans with chronic pelvic pain. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is there a difference in reduction in overall pelvic pain between women who undergo photobiomodulation compared to women who received pelvic floor physical therapy? Is there a difference in compliance with therapy between the two groups? Participants will be randomized to treatment with either 9 treatments of photobiomodulation (two treatments per week) or 8 weeks of pelvic floor physical therapy (one treatment a week). Researchers will compare both groups to see if there is a difference in overall pelvic pain reduction.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of Kinesio tape on delayed onset muscle soreness of the biceps muscle of your arm following strenuous exercise of the bicep muscle.

This study aims to look at the long term efficacy of using repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in relieving Gulf War Illness related headaches and pain.

Children and adolescents are treated with routine treatment approaches for adults and one of the most commonly used treatments are occlusal appliances. The use of occlusal appliances in managing orofacial pain conditions is supported by evidence, but only for adults. However, the efficacy of the treatment approaches and any possible side-effects/impairment of mandibular growth are absent. Therefore, the aim of this project is to investigate the effectiveness and possible side-effects of different treatment modalities, such as an occlusal appliance, jaw exercises, NSAID for the conditions myalgia orarthralgia in the orofacial region in children with primary or mixed dentition.
